Logo: On a black background, a yellow-blue ray of light, with some tiny particles beside it, flashes into view. A few seconds later, a glass cube starts to zoom in, causing the flash to de-intensify, and another ray of light to flash into view, this time upward. The upward ray of light moves downward in result of the cube starting to rotate, later becoming faster and faster, until it shoots 3 symmetry light rays, which forms the STX logo. The text "ENTERTAINMENT" fades in. Below that is a thin glass line, which shines a small rainbow ray.
Later Variants: Beginning around 2017 with the American release of The Circle, "ENTERTAINMENT" is replaced with "films" in spaced out letters.
An International Version Exists,Where "international" Is In Style Of "ENTERTAINMENT" And "films"
A TV Version Exists,Where " television" Is In Style Of *ENTERTAINMENT"
On Ready Friends The Guys (2024),The Logo Is Tinted Teal.
FX/SFX: The cube slicing to form the logo. Brilliant CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: Whooshing sounds and a guitar sound. Beginning Around 2017,A New Fanfare Was Introduced. Composed By Andrew Lockington
Availability: Debuted on The Gift, and appears on newer movies from STX Entertainment.
Scare Factor: Minimal to low. The whooshing may startle some, but that is a massive step-up from the previous logo.
